Terri Jul 15, 2025 A family favorite from the past. Took the grandkids. Loved it! See more Candice D @RT87275516 1 day ago This is such a classic family film, it updates the classic Peter Pan story with a modern twist that speaks to all grown ups about finding the fun in life again. The acting is spot on, the cast is fantastic, not a wasted minute, and Robin Williams in one of his best roles. This has only improved with age and is a Christmas staple in my house. See more L S @lscondut 3 days ago Horrible movie. Good premise, but horrible execution. At least 90 minutes too long. So boring. Volume keeps changing from too loud to so soft that it is incomprehensible. See more Greg F @RT52825332 Sep 6, 2026 How do you get to be a movie critic on this god forsaken app? How does Hook have a lower rating than all the other live action Peter Pan movies? The 2023 one? Horrendous in every way. Compared to Hook? Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, Stephen Spielberg, John Williams. Enough said. The others are daytime TV movies in comparison. For a live action kids movie, Hook is top tier. See more Douglas G @Moviefandrg Aug 10, 2026 Once past the cynicism and old age of the actors, it is an interesting "what if" Pete Pan did choose love over Neverland. And then growing up, but having to face someone who took his children. It is a silly and simplistic view of parenting while being a busy executive. However, it focuses on fatherhood and "believing." See more Dempo T @RT51675448 Aug 6, 2026 A beautiful, heartfelt adventure that deserves far more love than it receives. Hook understands something deeply moving about growing older: adulthood can make us forget who we once were, but that child is never completely gone. The movie is funny, emotional and full of wonder, with a warmth that modern family films rarely capture. John Williams’s soundtrack is simply magnificent. It gives every scene a sense of magic, scale and nostalgia, while the quieter moments carry sadness and tenderness. The music does not merely accompany the film, it gives Neverland its soul. Dustin Hoffman is still the finest Captain Hook ever put on screen. He is theatrical, menacing, vain, hilarious and oddly vulnerable, often within the same scene. He never plays Hook as a simple villain, but as a wounded and wonderfully entertaining character. Every gesture, pause and line feels perfectly judged. Hook is colourful, sincere and unforgettable. It is about family, memory and rediscovering joy. Five stars. See more Read all reviews
